We can find only RELATIVE truth through sensory perception.
Here is why I think so:
Give 10 master pieces of art to 10 different assessors and ask them to rank these in the descending order of beauty. Since, all assessors have RELATIVE perception of beauty, the ranking lists will vary in order from person to person.
Similarly, give 10 different melodies, 10 different foods, 10 different perfumes and 10 different pieces of fabrics to be ranked in the descending order of melodiousness, taste, smell and handle. You will find out that the order of preference will vary from man to man. Doesn't it mean that our sensory perceptions are RELATIVE? How can we find Absolute Truth through sensory perception which is so relative.
